SB 1756 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Campaigns and Campaign Finance - As introduced, requires the registry of election finance to provide a nonexclusive list of the various categories of contributions that constitute in-kind contributions requiring disclosure to each member of the general assembly at the beginning of each yearly session and each candidate for state office within one week of the candidate certifying a treasurer with the registry. - Amends TCA Title 2, Chapter 10.

SB 1756 requires Tennessee's election finance registry to create and distribute a non-exclusive list of examples for "in-kind contributions" (non-monetary campaign donations like goods or services) that must be disclosed. This list must be provided to every state legislator at the start of each legislative session and to each candidate for state office within one week of certifying a campaign treasurer. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 2, Chapter 10, to standardize disclosure guidance for these contributions. It aims to improve transparency by ensuring candidates and lawmakers have clear, upfront information about required reporting categories.
